Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial technology]

 The present invention relates to the auxiliary action of the turn indicators mounted on the roof 5 of each automobile.

[0002]

[Prior Art]

 The conventional direction indicator alone is located at the lower corner of the vehicle body, so it is relatively invisible to pedestrians, bicycles, and autobicycles, and it is easily damaged. There were many Some taxis, etc., have a turn signal that looks like a snail's tactile sensation, but in general, for people who are too close to the side and are at the side with danger, fix the turn indicator's lens part. A certain belt interferes and does not express a clear intention.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 These had the following drawbacks. (A) It is in a blind spot for people with a high viewpoint, such as pedestrians, bicycles and motorcycles, who are in the sideways. (B) In particular, at the intersection of two lanes, if the turn left and right turn is not the first approaching car, the direction of the car coming from the front is unknown and the flow of the car is hard. It (C) A few cars ahead of us may be at risk of early detection when making a right or left turn, which is dangerous. The present invention has been made to eliminate these drawbacks.

[0004]

[Means for solving the problem]

 By simply setting the direction indicators 1 of the present invention on both sides of each vehicle body roof 5, all the conventional defects can be eliminated.

[0005]

[0006]

【Example】

 Examples will be described with reference to the drawings. The cover 2 shown in FIGS. 1 to 3 serves to prevent light scattering of the lens 3 and protect the lens, and the main body is streamlined to reduce air resistance. In the fixed type according to the first aspect, not only screwing but also the body of the vehicle can be integrated during press molding.

[0007]

[Effect of the device]

 With the above configuration, it is useful for preventing all traffic accidents and alleviating traffic congestion.
